Guest Johnny Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Very unusual with an eye towards detail! What more is there to say J ? Always interesting builds! Sometimes I think maybe the manufaturers should kit some of your builds. Bet it would bring some new blood into the hobby!
Chuck Most Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Here's another little project of mine that had no real direction. Just an assortment of parts and such...It's a swap meet glue bomb body that I cut up and had fun with... That describes 95% of my projects... but mine never turn out THIS cool!
Space Cowboy Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 I think it looks fantastic. Great detail and color...
crazyjim Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Holy cow!!!! That can't be a 1/24 scale build. There's too much detail and it looks fabulous!! Amazing details. Amazing!!!
Jon Cole Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Jeez, Jeff! That is amazing detail! Did you scratch build that rear suspension?
rustybill1960 Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 WOW!! another little beauty! i like it nice form and colour thank you for sharing later russ

Jeff Sauber Posted July 29, 2010 Author Posted July 29, 2010 Jeff you never stop amazing me I love this build, But this is no mere hosh-posh of parts this was a well exacuted plan of genious. This is Outstanding!!! Thanks man, the body was sort of a compilation of paints and ideas...I wasn't sure what to do with it, but at least it was a good exercise in traditional flame painting practice..It was an old glue bomb that had the doors already partially opened up, so I just finished cutting them, hinged them, and called it done. I did try to organize the detailing and had an overall plan for that part of the build...The body was more of a "shoot from the hip" thing. Glad you like it..
Scalper Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 I have seen this one before some where. Magazine? looks like great. I like the balls that plug the stacks.
Jeff Sauber Posted July 29, 2010 Author Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) I have seen this one before some where. Magazine? looks like great. I like the balls that plug the stacks. Thanks, the "dust plugs" were removable as well..I can't find any pics I took of the car with them removed, but I'll look and see if I have any laying around somewhere. I no longer own the model, so unfortunately, I can't take any updated images. If this model ever got into a magazine I never knew about it...I had it a couple of old shows, but I never heard of it ever being in a magazine before. Edited July 29, 2010 by J. Sauber
Scalper Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 Is this the one you sold. or got lost at a show. maybe i saw it one of those post.
Jeff Sauber Posted July 29, 2010 Author Posted July 29, 2010 Is this the one you sold. or got lost at a show. maybe i saw it one of those post. Ah ok, yeah, the black '46 chevy was lost in the mail a year or two ago...This green ford here was sold off on ebay a while back.
bsoder Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 On another forum where they have a M.O.M deal I used to do OK...then Jeff came along although it's pretty easy to see why they'd cop a few votes
Romell R Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 I wish I would have known this was on ebay, I dont really buy built models buy I would buy one of youre builds. Speaking of Ebay I'll never sell another one of my builds. Yep im Keepin all for myself. MU HA HA HA!!!!! oh sorry must be the coffie
Jeff Sauber Posted July 30, 2010 Author Posted July 30, 2010 (edited) I scraped up a few more old pics of this thing...They are grainy with poor pixel quality, but these are the only other usable images I could find.. Edited July 30, 2010 by Harry P.
george 53 Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 Wasn't someone JUST askin about a Lenco??? Welp here's a perfect example of one! Looks GOOD !
Jeff Sauber Posted July 30, 2010 Author Posted July 30, 2010 (edited) Wasn't someone JUST askin about a Lenco??? Welp here's a perfect example of one! Looks GOOD ! Thanks George, I tried to simulate the neumatic shifter style trans here that uses the C/02 to shift the gears instead of the typical mechanical levers... For those interested in more info on Lenco transmissions and some good reference pics for modeling ideas, here's the Lenco website.. http://www.lencoracing.com/ Edited July 30, 2010 by J. Sauber
ROY AVERY Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 Great Rod . Do you have any W.I.P. or chassis pics?
Jeff Sauber Posted July 30, 2010 Author Posted July 30, 2010 Great Rod . Do you have any W.I.P. or chassis pics? These are the only pics I could find of this thing...It's about 5 years old so most of the images I had have been deleted and removed from my computer. If I find anymore images I'll post them here....I may have some others laying around the basement.....Regards, Jeff
